I'm still not a fan, but I know a few people who have been salivating over this. So if you don't mind the spoilers, enjoy the video before it gets pulled from YouTube.

Beta content of Mass Effect 3 that was only meant to go to a few internal testers (and why it would be on Microsoft's servers is beyond me if it's just internal testing) was flagged incorrectly by the XBox corp, and it was uploaded to online testers. Who proceeded to download, take screenshots, and videos. Because who wouldn't? Microsoft has already taken the content down, but clearly the damage has been done. They may also go through and wipe away downloads/installs of the users who have the beta.

A few gamers have already complained about the content and how unpolished the work is. To which I will respond with the following, that I have been doing for oh-so-many months with TOR:

It's.

A.

BETA.

Of course it doesn't look nice and pretty and clean. -_- They're still working on it! And seeing how they have been working on other projects, they can fix a lot of stuff in a very short amount of time. So have a little confidence in your precious developer. Even with EA's hand on their shoulders, they seem to still have a lot of control over their work.
